The “RELTEC” company has developed and produced a new vacuum induction melting plant

In February 2017 the “RELTEC” company has developed and produced a new vacuum induction melting plant (IMPV-50-2,4) for UNICHIM(Russia).

The plant is designed to conduct research in the field of obtaining new refractory materials based on boron. IMPV-50-2,4 was shipped with a full set of related services: detailed engineering drawings, set of wiring diagrams and construction solutions, advisory on equipment selection in accordance with customer’s technical specification, assembling and test run.
